The two men. Samuel Schwartze and
Ashley, who we're charged with brandish-
ing knives, were brought in before Judge
Fisher Yesterday forenoon and the charge
in the complaint announced. The young
man Schwartze very promptly announced
that he was probably guilty of making and
creating a disturbance and breach OF the
peace, although he was not aware that he
had brandished any knives with belliger-
ent intentions, and he stated further that
Ashley was in no way responsible for
what had happened, was not connected
with the row at all, and that if any one
was guilty besides himself it was another
party altogether. Under the circum-
stances and statement made by Schwartze
the court promptly discharged Ashley.
Schwartze was fined in the usual amount
for such offenses, and 1t was paid without
delay.

EIGHT PENITENTIARIES.
Penitentiary Commissioners Designate
County Jails as Such.

A very important meeting Of the terri
tonal board of penitentiary commission
ers was held in Cheyenne yesterday, there
being present Col. Murrin, chairman, and
Commissioners John D. Dyer and F. II.
Foote. the former OF Rawlins and the lat
ter Of Evanston. A considerable amount
of routine business was done, such as the
allowance Of bills, etc. Among the bills
allowed was one for $lS5, which arose in
accordance with the contract made by
the board by which the prison authori-
ties at Joliet have paid the sum OF $50 10 to
each convict when discharged from the
penitentiary in order that he might have
at least enough to pay for a square meal
and a nights lodging when starting in life
anew.
A letter was addressed to Attorney
General Donzelman asking his opinion as
to whether the board had the power to
designate the various county jails OF the
territory as temporary penitentiaries for
the keeping of ~convicts until such time as
the board can make permanent arrange
ments with the authorities of some prison
abroad. An answer in the affirmative was
received; thereupon the board proceeded
by resolution, which was spread in full
upon the journal record of the board, to
designate the county jails at Cheyenne,
Laramie City, Rawlins, Green River,
Evanston, Lander, Buffalo and Sundance
as temporary penitentiaries where con-
victs may be confined until such time as
other arrangements may be made by the
board.
The secretary of the board was directed
to transmit copies ofthe resolution to and
notify each of the three judges of the ter
ritory and the county clerks ofeach county
of this official action. Without finishing
all the business which the board had on
hand. an adjournment was taken until
to-day

PROF. AUGHEY RESIGNS.
Who, IL Anybody, VIII be His Successor
As Geologist

Prof. Samuel Aughey, the territorial
geologist, rendered his resignation to Gov
ernor Moonlight yesterday and it was ac-
cepted. The professor was compelled to
do this on account of his health, which of
late and since his severe and dangerous
illness of last fall has been quite poor and
such as did not admit of his giving his
general attention to the details of his Of
fee without serious detriment to him
self.
The resignation OF Prof. Aughey hav-
ing left a vacancy in the Office, the ques-
ton now arises as to who is to be his sue
cessor. Governor Moonlight stated yes
terday that he was uncertain where to look
for a man competent to fill the position
and asked the question Where can |
look for someone to fill this position now
that Prof. Aughey has resigned? ?" There
is one thing that ought to be said in refer
ence to a territorial geologist, and that is
that unless a man fully and entirely CON-
petent to fill the position can be found no
appointment to fiji the vacancy should be
made, at least that appears to be the pre-
vailing sentiment, so far as it could be as
certained by THE LEADER reporter yes
terday.
1t has been suggested hat a competent
geologist can be found at Denver to ac-
cept the position, and it is not here
claimed that a competent man cannot be
found in Wyoming Gf there is one he
should receive the appointment in prefer
ence to some man from abroad), bat in
view of the fact that the last legislature
was on the point of abolishing the Office
altogether, and that the next one proba-
bly, will do so, the question which natu-
rally arises is whether. under the circum-
stances, It would be well to fill the vacan-
cy. Territorial Auditor NJ. n. Grant,
who understands well the needs and in
terests of the territory in all its depart
ments, stated yesterday that unless a
thorough, first.class geologist can be found
to accept the position he, for one, would
think it better to let the office remain
vacant. Hon. A. S. Peabody, OF Laramie
City, chairman of. the, territorial auditing
board, expressed the same view, and Hon.
j. NJ. Tompkins, and it might be added
several other gentlemen who understand
well what the interests of the territory are,
were substantially of the same opinion.
Under the situation as it now exists it is
somewhat uncertain what Governor Noon
light will conclude to do.

The news Of the reelection of Charles
Francis Adams as president of the Union
Pacific railroad and also of the old board
Of Union Pacific directors has had a good
effect in Cheyenne, for it foreshadows a
fair and equitable policy on the part OF
the management-the same that it has
been heretofore since these same men
have been at the helm. There was much
comment on the streets and in public
places yesterday regarding the matter and
it was agreed upon all sides hat the fact
was not only a gratifying one, but that it
would have a material effect on the inter
ests of this city. inasmuch as it is an
assurance of a continued friendly policy
toward Cheyenne such as did not always
characterize the attitude of the Union
Pacific. AS to what material and bene-
fetal results will follow this continuation
at the helm of the old management the
near future will undoubtedly reveal.

.sJAY GOULD,
He turns Up in Cheyenne and Goes on
The Warpath.

A pretty tough customer who goes by
the name of Jay Could made things
pretty lively on Fifteenth street yesterday
afternoon. To begin with he filled up
with forty rod whisky after which he
concluded that it would be very appro
pirate for him to go on the warpath, and
suiting his actions to his conclusions on
this point made divers assaults on several
small children in that vicinity. They OF
curse got out of bis way which encour-
aged Mr.. Gould in the idea that he
was making a good success and from this
commenced to insult every lady whom he
saw, and they following the example of
the children got out of his way also. In
the meantime word had been sent to the
city hall and by the time Policeman Nolan
arrived at the seat of war Gould was
pulling off his coat and preparing to
turn and clean OUT as he termed it the
whole street.
Nolan, however, proved to be an ele-
ment Mr.. Gould had not counted on,
and before he had time to comprehend the
situation he was on his way to Jail. On
the route jay asserted in the most
positive terms that he was going to muir
der Nolan in cold blood. Nolan thought
not, and a struggle ensued, the rantan-
kerous Jay getting the worst of i. by a
large majority. Then Mr.. Could
changed his tactics and said he was a
member of the Rocky Mountain Detective
Association, and declared that if he was
not released he would report the fact to
its officers and they would make it hot
for Nolan. This, however, was of no
avail and the bowling would-be desperate
was eventually ~calaboosed.

AS stated yesterday morning, the boom
is still in progress in a quiet way and
although there is not so much stir and
hustle as there was during the first two
days OF the present activity in real estate
circles, yet there are perhaps more actual
sales being made than ever, although no
special effort is made by THE LEADER to
keep track of them. THE LEADER pre-
dicted the boom, and kept on predicting
and publishing facts which tended to pro-
duce it, and now that it is here and the
fact well known there is no necessity of
devoting a large amount of space to its
workings and progress. As stated here
toforc, the boom is quite liable to extend
10 improved property. A practical dem
onstration of this iuea is found in the fact
that John Eames was yesterday offered
$4,000 for his property Just south of the
alley on Hill street.

ANOTHER SALE,
which Perhaps Means a Glass Factory
In Cheyenne.

The old colored gentleman named
Doan, who lives on the side" hill across
the Eddy street bridge and clear out on
the outskirts of the southern portion of
the city, yesterday sold his ranch for 81
800 to three Englishmen whose names
were not learned, but who came here
from Colorado. There was much specu-
!ation yesterday as to what use was to be
made of the land. 1t is too far far out to
be very desirable for building purposes,
and would hardly be Il desirable locality
in which to make of it a home. 1t Is
also outside of the city limits. Inquiry,
however, seemed to furnish soue sort of
a clue TO the mystery. The gentlemen
who made the purchase are monied men
and are amply able to engage in almost
any business they might desire. The
land in question $50 acres) it is claimed
furnishes the best sand that can be found
anywhere in this portion of the territory,
and putting these two facts together it is
surmised and stated by some who may or
may not have some positive information
on the subject that a glass factory is what
is meant BY the purchase and that one
will be built there during the coming sea-
son. A glass factory has recently been
put in at Golden, Col, and is not only
now in running order but is doing excel
lent and satisfactory work. If a glass
factory will work well at Golden. why not
at Cheyenne also?
